SYNOPSIS In a Havana slum, a forty-year-old woman survives a bloody fight in which her husband almost kills her lover. In a desperate attempt to spare her son from the repercussions of this scandal, she decides to run away with him, but a video of the incident has already gone viral and her mother has fled with him without her consent. For a whole day, she will traverse the city searching for any information about the whereabouts of the boy. Eventually, she will have to confront her mother’s arguments, her son’s fears, the opprobrium of her neighbors, and her own feelings of guilt.
